Hey now, hey now,

The RTAK-II counts as a chopper, and it works [censored] well too. I just happen not to carry it on my waist anymore, its strapped to my pack. I also carry a hatchet, which counts as well.

As for national parks, there is only one in Oregon: Crater Lake National Park
http://www.nps.gov/crla/

Thats in southern Oregon. But don't think that just because we only have one national park that there ain't no forest elsewhere. I think one reason that there are so few national parks is because the timber industry has such a huge lobby at the state capitol in salem.

p.s. Sharp, i'm in Portland now, we came home a full day early <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
